I'm starting a new chapter in my life and aim to embrace a simpler life - small accomplishments, everyday comforts, a fresh approach to every day activities. I want to live more creatively with less emphasis on consumerism and money. I want to embrace the philosophy of the slow food movement of home grown and home cooked food, quality over quantity, eating at home with friends and family. So there will be a lot of reading for inspiration, gardening, making and baking. Join me as I make the journey and see where it takes me along the way.
